Bento week # 7

I have been keeping awhile the soba mee from our bento menu as i still feel sceptical about transporting the soup base noodle to work. And here i actually queried about my own capability in handling it, what's more with the boys??!! But i made a daring move last week....yes, finally made it!

Below was my bento to work:

-used the purple bowl type box

-soba mee surrounded by zuchinni slices & topped with seaweed

-left box contain steamed brocolli & carrot, brushed with olive butter & pinch of salt

-the lock & lock round container was a spill prove one meant to store liquid (kept my mind secure from worrying about the hassle of the soup)

I took them out from the fridge straight to work & once arrived office, i immediately put the pack back into the fridge again until lunch time! It was nice to be served cold.......

When i prepared the soba mee the night before, i purposely made a little extra for the boys to try out in an effort to test if i should made it their bento too. I got a straight PASS....they love it so much that they kept asking for more and i had to divert away their attention before i could 'hide' the noodle for the next day's bento, hahaha!!

The soup for the boys was stored in the little sauce containers. As i still couldn't trust the boys could handle the soup without messying around, i proceeded into their class & set the noodle ready for them to eat immediately after arriving school in the morning!! Before i left, I watched them starting to eat & 'jokingly' told the teacher to make sure they finish it.......and boy....the teacher was amused (cheekily smiling) seeing how 'good' this mummy was, ~~~blush blush~~~ hahaha !!!

In the red silicon cup was yellow watermelon.

=================================================

Huby's friend (who is a rice manufacturer) has given him several packs of the below rice to try out! There were many flavours ranging from tomato rice, briyani rice & hainan rice. My first pick was tomato rice as i knew that this would be suitable for the boys' bento too. One pack is suffice to serve at least 3-4 persons.

Preparation is almost similar to the usual way of cooking rice.

After washing the rice, pour 480ml water, add spices content, stir well & bring to cook!

So here they are, a little bowl of tomato rice to go with 2 pieces of chicken nuggets. Tomato sauce in the orange sauce container for dipping. Blue berries in the pink silicon cup & a cheese cube. In the aluminium foil was a small piece of cake.

Below was my bento. I added some 'Hijiki' to the tomato rice.

Served my tomato rice with salad (raw veggies & cherry tomatos).....btw, really felt like a cow eating grass ....arghh !!!

Below was a star shaped rice topped with seaweed flakes served with stir fried fish cake & long bean !! There were also 2 pieces of roll (ham & cheese)

============================================

Below was my bento:

Brocollies wrapped in ham and 'hijiki' rice!

=========================================

Here is a snack bento:

In blue silicon cup was a bake of 'left over'. It consists of left over bread as base where i chunked in some ham, added butter, a layer of sour & tomato cream. I was taken by surprise when the boys ate them without asking what was it....haha!!!

In the pink silicon cup was banana coated with chocolate yoghurt !!

Happy bentoing !!
